One of the world's most successful boy bands ever, the five boys from Ireland are reforming this year for a limited tour, and Wales's leading music festival has secured a date.

Bryn Terfel commented: "I'm very excited to be announcing that Boyzone will be opening this year's Faenol Festival. It's a real coup for us, as their tour dates are limited."

"I know that fans will turn out in droves to welcome them and enjoy their music, and as it will undoubtedly be the hottest summer festival ticket in Wales.

"My advice is, to book as soon as you can!"

Destined to be one of the live music events of the year, this performance will see all five original members – Ronan Keating, Stephen
Gately, Shane Lynch, Mikey Graham and Keith Duffy come back together to perform some of their best loved songs since they broke up in 2000.

This concert will open the four day festival on the Faenol Estate, further details about the full Festival programme will be released shortly.
